Cabela's sketchy info on these models claims they, too are bedding block and B&C I'm about to find out for sure about the former when I pull the stock to adjust the 3.5 pound trigger pull down. 243 - have smaller, lighter stocks (my barrel is floated clear to the action). The other two, "big game" and "varmint" - which I have in. In 3 configurations, the only one I would bet the farm on having a full-length bedding block would be the "long range" version, an almost spitting image of the A7 Tecomate, but not stainless. So bottom line are the Cableas rifles designed differently? Is my stock truly different than a standard A7 stock?įirst (obvious) question: Did you purchase your A7 from Cabela's? All A7s from there have the heavier, longer barrels and (they claim) stocks by Bell and Carlson. He said they have no information or any involvement with any Sakos sold by Cableas. When I told him I wasn't getting the advertised accuracy with any of the several premium loads I'd tried, he told me he could give me no help with any rifle that came from Cabelas. He said Cabelas orders directly from Beretta in Italy and often have different specs.
After finally convincing the guy on the phone that the pressure points I'd examined on two A7's were both obviously factory, he said the rifles I'd looked at must have come from Cabelas. I called Beretta/Sako and was told that all A7 have fully floated barrels.

In the owner's manual it talks about making sure that the barrel if fully floating by using a piece of paper. I examined another factory stock with the same two factory pressure points. My factory stock has two pressure points built into the stock.
